Out of curiousity, why wouldn't someone just migrate directly to Polars?

Part of what's nice about AI is that I don't feel that bad about pulling out and rebuilding some new feature that the AI has put a lot of time into but that I personally haven't. It let's me explore certain approaches and not feel tied to certain decisions that I might have not been confident about at the outset.

that's a meme?

It's up there with Milhouse.

I'm pretty sure he posts about D on every language-related post; it's not just zig.

It's not very impressive, but I decided I wanted to get better at recognizing NHL jersey numbers and was frustrated with the options available to learn (out of date Sporcle quizs and the like), so I tossed together a flashcard game with the help of Claude.

It pulls data directly from the NHL to stay up-to-date with changes to the roster, but is otherwise a pretty straight-forward and basic sveltekit app.

I've toyed with using AI for stuff like this (my day job isn't coding related), and this was consistent with previous experiences where I found it helpful in some respects (especially all the css and stuff which I don't really know too well), but it could also get stuck and produce some awful messes trying to fix it. I pulled this together mostly over the course of a couple hours, though, which definitely wouldn't have happened if I did it from scratch.

Then he can't buy the tickets. People aren't born with a god-given right to get seasons tickets to Dodger's games. There are businesses that choose not to handle cash and only accept credit or debit payments. I need to agree to a credit card companies terms and conditions for that too. Is that unreasonable?

Yes. Businesses should have to accept cash.

I wonder if they thought that since they were responding to an emergency, and they were given clearance to cross by ATC, that that would override normal procedures. Kind of like how emergency vehicles cross a red light all the time when responding to an emergency.

If they thought that, it was in error. Training SPECIFICALLY calls this out. The lights ALWAYS overrule the controller. Period.

It would be interesting to know whether that rule was onerous enough in practice that they had little choice but to break it in order to do their jobs effectively. They were responding to an emergency, seconds count, and they believed they had clearance from the controller.

Should I give you a pass for only pulling a ten from my wallet when you mug me? Or do I defend myself knowing that next time you'll be taking more?

So you don't want to answer the question?

I think one major difference is that MPs are far less beholden to their party for reelection and it is not uncommon for them to cross the floor when they feel the interests of their constituents are not being represented by the governing (or opposing) party.

Yes, a PM with a whipped majority is tremendously powerful, but getting that whipped majority is not an easy task and requires significant politicking and negotiating within the party precisely because individual MPs are proportionately more powerful than legislators in the US.

Why would you assume that? This administration has trumpeted their intents continuously from the rooftop and delivered on their promises every time. Why do people continuously assume that this time, finally, reason and restraint will prevail?
